Lets Not get carried away

[@MotleyCrewCab]

I remember him saying he had Diarrhea one time and thought he was melting. Funny stuff

I love and miss all of these people! Nipsey was one of the funniest comedians of all time, and I loved to listen to him. Sure miss that time period and the people alive at that time....

[@1Cruzer4u]

Every Roast We Waited For Two Comedian's To Perform. NIPSEY & DON The Best, Each Performance Better Than The Previous. These Men Were Respected And Treated With Respect. Notice The Love & Admiration The Guest Have For Nipsey & Don. Comedy Legends...

[@tronrunner2498]

I would add Foster Brooks

[@donalm7874]

Cruzer agree entirely with you. If you do this today your a racist or worse. We should all laugh a lot more at each other and ourselves and then it doesn't matter what colour your friends are there just the same as you. It doesn't get much better than this show. , black or white so much respect and fondness for one another., love them all.

The celebrity roast they have these days are all for "shock value"

If people today heard what Nipsey said back then, heads would explode. Love Nipsey Russell.

[@chipgriffiths3655]

No, if they listened, they'd hear truth through his humor. Imo, a more brilliant humorist than Dick Gregory. Why, because everyone listened to him and tried to understand what he was making fun about.

[@charlesreichow7178]

He still alive.?

The people of today can’t take a joke or laugh at themselves. We were a lot better off then.

[@AstralPixie]

What a cast of characters here for the 1st segment: Carol O'Connor, Red Foxx, Mama Cass Eliott, Don Rickles, Gene Kelly, Dick Martin, Dean Martin.

[@Ghastly_Grinner]

How fucking crazy is it that it seems like they were more unified back then 10-15 years after the passing of the civil rights act than now

[@depaola63]

Dean was so cool and loved everyone ! Like my Nanu Joe who was born in the same town of Stubenville, Ohio !!

[@hughhaefner5486]

Nipsey was huge in his time. We all white folk always watched his shows way back then in my circle of whities.

one of my favourite of nipsey roasts is of dennis weaver when he said u know general custer was black when he was surrounded by all the indians in the world waiting for him at little bighorn then he turned white. R.I.P. nipsey.

[@byronwelichko8577]

Holy shit this is funny.

[@blacksuburban2410]

Wow! Imagine a world where we could have fun teasing each other about race, culture, ethnicity, sexuality, sexual orientation, etc. in a lighthearted way 😢 Neither given nor received with hatred. As an 80’s baby/90’s kid, I was fortunate to have experienced the last of an era and generation

[@nathelondon3719]

Nipsy was great because he was self deprecating and didn’t attack other races or religions.

[@chrisneaves6376]

nipsey Russell roasts Jackie Gleason quoting 1 of his poems referring to dean martin and Mr gleason the men who choose the life of booze I have no sympathy at all I sympathise with us sober guys u drunks are having a ball. CLASSIC. R.I.P. nipsey

[@ayofawehinmi1287]

RIP Nipsy.... As blackman wish I had half(who am I kidding)10% of his educated wit to fight with,, cause then I will see ignorant racists mofos as just the uneducated moron they really are.. instead of this angry so and so you see before u. as my life hasn't got any better. thanks Nipsey..Redd (Fox),,Richard (Pryor).. for the EdUcAtIoN

[@kenmurray1097]

I live back in those days believe it or not. I didn’t really care for that so much either keep in mind. I was a very young white kid. I was in high school my two best friends. One was a black kid not that I noticed the second was another good friend. He happened to be from Puerto Rico, no maybe back then that was a big thing before the three of us it wasn’t we were just friends. This was in 60s and what are we dealing with today? Bullshit people get your fucking heads together and see things through intelligence instead of through your ears.

[@GarryGriffy]

22:11 dean and sammy losing themselves

[@alineroig5288]

If you want to explore real comedy go back 20 years and listen to Richard Proyor, Eddie Murphy, Nipsey Russell, Bob hope, Joan Rivers, Andrew Dice Clay, Red Foxx, the old SNL SHOWS and In Living Color. Sanford and Son, Archie Bunker.......this was comedy.

[@yankee2666]

No more Nipsey Russels; now we have Kanye Wests. ...An improvement?

[@netsanetmartine9548]

🤣😂😂 luv me some yeezy tho

[@excelsciors]

That was a nice jab at Lucy from Nipsey. At @ Nipsey makes a point to remind the audience. That in all the years Lucy had her show on TV. Lucy never had a black person on the show! Lucy must of been a racist of some kind. But lots of white folks were naturally racist back in the day! If I recall my nursing courses. Penicillin was discovered thru moldy bread not cheese. Did Nipsey ever date, was he married, straight or gay?

[@syphon_9892]

Just because she didn't have an African American on her show doesn't mean she's racist. Her husband was cuban. You must harbor some really extreme views 😤

[@sueme1954]

@@syphon_9892 ..and actually Desi Arness's family were snobs and did not think Lucy was good enough "high born" enough for their son.The bigoted view may have been from him.

[@rudolphbradshaw6124]

Nipsey was straight

[@ralphadamo1857]

Dean Martin raises a good point about Nipsey being the "only" black comic without his own situation show. Nipsey Russell would have been fabulous in a sitcom. It's a shame that TV executives didn't have the foresight to cast him in such a role. Although some people are fond of calling Americans racist, the fact is that if you were talented enough in show business, you could get gigs, even some pretty impressive ones, regardless of your race. As a child (white) during the early 1960s, I recall the early appearances of Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor and audiences of all races and religions loved them.
